too much.

Got daddy issues?


Listen Later

Do you like older guys, or is it daddy issues? That’s the question we’re chasing down the rabbit hole today. In this episode of Too Much, Emma is finally digging into her long history of dating up — from 4 year age gaps to 21 year age gaps — and why she thought she needed an older man to feel safe, stable, or seen.

Spoiler: it wasn’t about money, and no, it wasn’t daddy issues either. We’re talking power dynamics, youngest sibling syndrome, emotional unavailability disguised as maturity, and how she confused “having their life together” with “being able to love me.” We’re getting into the psychology of dating down, why confident women are now going younger, and how closing the age gap with Mr. Right changed everything (who may or may not be dropping into the studio today...)

Whether you’ve chased silver foxes or swore off Peter Pans, this episode is a deep dive into the real reasons we date outside our age bracket — and why your “type” might be the thing holding you back.
